[Verse]
Who says there has to be a beach to wear a bathing suit?
Well i would lie on pebbles lavishly but london's pebbles are dirt.
And i will paint with knives and guns to insure sure my art is incorrect and i will sleep on sheets of satin and eat my cigarrettes.
[Chorus]
But england has nothing more to offer me, well everything that i adore came well before 1984.
[Verse]
We are on a single island i hope you see and beyond our lonely country there is only the atlantic sea.
So i will burn a fire in westminster using the door of downing street. and when tony rushes out complaining of a draft i'll let him warm his feet.
[Chorus]
But england has nothing more to offer me, well everything that i adore came well before 1984.
(middle 8)
So goodbye, yeah i wish you all well but i can no longer thrive in england for i think that it is hell x2
[Chorus]
This country has nothing more to offer me, well everything that i adore came well before 1984.
Oh everything that i adore came well before 1984
